sky hy ironman Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 This is probably out of our hands. In our state newspapers we will continue with NU, but the rest of our big ten brethren will do whatever the Big 10 network or some writer for the Chicago Tribune does. We will find out for sure by the time we play Northwestern. If they refer to us as something we don't like, we can complain, but it might not do any good. I was sitting in a production meeting before an LSU vs Ole Miss game and the reps from LSU insisted that they not be referred to as the Bayou Bengals by ABC during the broadcast. ESPN, owned by ABC, still does it - all of the time. Another reason ----Don't count on ANY positive comments whatsoever from the tribune, way too many Big Red haters there, courtesy of all michigan & notre dame grads there. It is truly painful about thier pathetic bias against all of us Red Bloods. Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Where have you been? All of our new Big 10 members have been saying that Northwestern is "NW." We're NU. We've always been NU, and we're going to stay NU. Northwestern can lay claim to to the moniker when they have six MNCs and/or more wins than Nebraska. Maybe this will be our rivalry game. Instead of some trophy, we'll play for 365 day's use of NU. ha! Classic Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 We could just start putting KU on our helmets. For the correct spelling of "knowledge". Quote Link to comment
